It Might Have Been Serious.

A youag man from the east who has
recently come to Ogden to live, had q
rather peculiar and very unpleasant ex-
perience on Tuesday night. 1t seems
that the young man becoming tired of
the noise and hustle incident to hotel
life, rented furnished room in the
northeastern part of the city on Mon
day last. Taking considerable interest
in politics, and desiring 10 learn now
his State had gone, he stayed at the
Broom until late hour on Tuesday
night eagerly reading the election bull
letins.
There is house short distance from
the one where the young man rooms
that is identical with it in appearance,
and when he reached the gate, busily
engaged i'll making calculations
on the result of the elections,
he walked up to the strange
house with an air of proprietorship
and thrust the key into what he sup
posed was the door to his room.
Strangely enough the lock yielded, and
as he pushed the door open there was a
wild shrek of terror, and the white
robed figure of woman sprang from a
bed and Shot past the young man into
an adjoining room. He stood petri6ed
with horror as the truth flashed upon
him, then turning, he commenced
cautiously to retire, but before he
could reach the gate a gruff voice called
upon him to halt, and he saw the barrel
OF revolver glistening in the star light.
Rumors say that it took that young
man just three quarters of an hour to
explain matters satisfactorily. and that
he will cause barrel filled with rocks,
to be placed in front of his gate to avoid
a repetition of Tuesday nights ex-
perience.

Dining on n Picture.

The early days of Jules Basticn's
career were a time of struggle and
poverty. He was glad to draw de-
signs for a fashion Journal, and once
he went down to Damvillers and
painted forty portraits of the villagers.
The cost of living, small as his ex-
Penses were. was a serious matter.
Fol the rent of his little attic studio he
paid fifty dollars Il YEAR. He break

and two of coffee, vita milk. llol,

twenty-seven cents, he went to the
restaurant of Mademoiselle Anna, Rue
Saint Benoit.
In those early days he painted a
picture of a peasant girl walking in Il
forest in spring, cntrapped by Loves
VINO were casting their nets before her
feet. This picture was accepted at the
Salon i'll 1873, through the influence
OF Cabanel, but it was not sold. 1t

Deterioration in Small Fruits.

j. NJ, Smith, in his paper on this sub
iect before the American PomIogical So
ctety, disputes the necessity of deteriora-
ton. The wild strawberry of the woods
is probably 40 better nor worse than IL
was two thousand years ago. Wild fruits
do not dcteiiorate or become extinct.
The tendency of an improved strawberry
is to revert to its original type. This can
be prevented, however, by holding up its
character by highest cultivation, etc.
The fancy berries. petted under highest
culture, give good results, but fail in the
hands of the common c%ultivator. The
Wilson used TO he the queen of st;awber-
ties. Now it is failing in many sections.
Why! All improved varieties, in order to
succeed, should have the same condition
under which they originated. The Will
son needs good soil and frequent re-
newat. Change of ait may be needed
also. These conditions arc absolutely
necessary. Plants have to be sold too
cheop; hence are often poorly grown and
poorly packed. Poor plants set in poorly
carcd-lor soil, UNPROTECTED, struggle along
for a few years, Nlt finally result in al
most utter failure. The runners of these
poor, sickiv, starved plants are planted
again. This has been going on for about
"a rtv years, and everybody cries: The
w ls0n Is no longer Il success" Under
the circumstances it is a wonder only
that II as stood so long. O~urignorance,
our earclessness. Il stupidity, and neg
lect hascauard its deterioration. Now
lei us try anothertrea.ment, Take Young,
vigorous runners from healthy plants,
pick off the first blossoms, give highest
cultivation, gather IL crop and replant
on some other place. Under this treat
ment the Wilson does not run out" but
seems 80 improve. Give each variety OF
small fruits such soil, food, care and pro.
lection as it requires, or suffer the conse.

Men With One Leading idea.

Poe has observed, says an article in
Chambers Journal, that every man has
a pet word or phrase which he uses
of Carlyle and the "luciiity" of Mat
thew Arnold are instances in points;
and it is almost equally certain that
every man has a pet idea. In some it
is difficult to discover what that ono
idea is; in others it is very prominent.
The desire to master ones trade or pro-
fession is. we need hardly say. very
laudable; but when Il man has no
thoughts for anything else. and can
not open his mouth without talking
"shop," lie Is simply an intolerable
bore. Lord Beaconslieid, indeed de-
tiucs the true bore as chat man who
thinks the world is Gully Interested in
one subject, because he can only COM
prehend one"
Most notable men are handed down
to posterity by their W idea; but
there are many exceptions to this rule.
VIC arc told of 4 celebrated comedian
wtiu, by some strange infatuation,
thought himself destined to excel in
tragedy, and was much mortified when
on benefit nights he played Romeo and
the audience insisted on receiving it
as a burlcsque. The one idea of
Charles Readc is we'll known. He WAS
not content with his fame rs II novelist,
but wanted to become famous as n dra-
matist also, and there are a few living
authors who are quite as ambitious.
Probably II of the most remarkable
men of II idea was Lord Palmerston,
who could think of little else nut for
ign politics. An amusing story is
told of him in the ''Grcville Memoirs
1.-The Queen" Il y Grcvillc. .told
Clarendon an anccdote of Palmrrstou,
showing how exclusively absorbed he
is with foreign politics. Her Majesty
has been much Interested In aud
alarmed at the strikes and troubles ii
the north, and asked Palmerston TO,
details about them, when she fouuG
that he knew nothing at MI. Ono
morning after previous inquiries, sh,
said to him: Pray, Lord Palnerston,
have you any ncws?' To which he re
piled: No, madame: | have heart

Some of IL Judges are rlen of one
idea. A short time ago Il Learned

An Anecdotc With a Touch of Humor
Boston Saturday Gazette: A gentle
man about to close his house at Ma
liant conceived what he considered a
brilliant idea to insure the daily per.
sonal inspection of every room in his
villa during the winte-7.,y the Old man
in whose charge the establishment was
to be left. Accordingly, he said to the
old man that he should leave all his
clocks, n in each room, at Nahapt
during the winter, and ne desired that
every one should be wound up at a
regular hour each day. The old man
%concurred in the plan with all his heart,
aud promised he would not fill. The
house vas closed. Theowncr Dragged
a good deal about his scheme for bav-
ing every room guarded against leaks.
etc, during the winter, and came to
Boston. A week or two afterward this
gentleman thought he would take a run
down to Nahant, and see how things
were going. When he arrived there he
found his man, who was very glad to
see him, and told him that he had
would each clock faithfully as he had
directed. On entering the house the
two proceeded to the rear drawing
room, and the astoni hment of the
owner may be better imagined than de-
scribed when he saw ranged along in y
row his thirteen clocks, which the old
man had brought down to save himself
the trouble of going all over the house
every day.

ings with signs. He kept boardcrs,
and when the people from the city
came mp and saw the same things they
were accustomed TO see in taking a
ride on the elevated or in crossing tho
Brooklyn bridge they felt at home at
once. He had Il pretty gorge near the
house, and painted q sulphur spring
for him so neatly that he had to fence
it in to keep people from drinking i,

Buffalo Courier: "Mamie," said
Augustus, as he carefully spread his
hemstitched handkerchief on the floor
and knelt on it at his idols feet,

sake"
"Ah, Augustus, dear, 1 know you

only ask you, Augustus, to go down
town and buy me a yard and an eighth
OF brocaded satin, cut on the bias, Just
